Accessing Pabbly Connect for Integration

To create ConvertKit subscribers in sequence from Google Sheets, you need to access Pabbly Connect. This platform allows you to automate the integration without requiring coding skills. Start by visiting the Pabbly Connect homepage and signing in or creating a new account.

Once logged in, you will be directed to the dashboard. Here, you can create a new workflow by clicking on the ‘Create Workflow’ button. Name your workflow, for example, ‘Create ConvertKit Subscriber in Sequence from Google Sheets’. Organizing your workflows into folders helps manage them efficiently.


Setting Up the Trigger with Google Sheets

In this step, you will set Google Sheets as the trigger application in Pabbly Connect. The goal is to trigger the workflow whenever a new row is added to your Google Sheets. Select Google Sheets, then choose the trigger event as ‘New or Updated Spreadsheet Row’.

After selecting the trigger event, a webhook URL will be generated. Copy this URL as it will be used to connect Google Sheets with Pabbly Connect. In your Google Sheets, navigate to ‘Extensions’ > ‘Add-ons’ > ‘Get Add-ons’ and install the Pabbly Connect Webhook add-on. Once installed, refresh your spreadsheet.

  • Copy the webhook URL from Pabbly Connect.
  • Paste it in the Pabbly Connect Webhook setup in Google Sheets.
  • Set the trigger column to the last data column (e.g., D).

After completing these steps, click on the ‘Send Test’ button to verify the connection. If successful, you will see the response captured in Pabbly Connect, confirming that the trigger setup is complete.


Configuring the Action in ConvertKit

Next, you will set up ConvertKit as the action application in Pabbly Connect. This step involves adding the subscriber to a specific sequence based on the data received from Google Sheets. Select ConvertKit and choose the action event as ‘Add Subscriber to a Sequence’.

To establish a connection, you will need your ConvertKit API key and secret. Navigate to your ConvertKit account settings to find these details. Once connected, you will map the sequence ID that corresponds to the course of interest for the lead.

  • Map the email address and other relevant fields from Google Sheets.
  • Use the lookup table to dynamically retrieve the sequence ID based on the course name.
  • Ensure all fields are correctly mapped to automate the process.

After mapping the required fields, click on ‘Save and Send Test Request’. If successful, the subscriber will be added to the specified sequence in ConvertKit, confirming that the action setup is complete.


Finalizing the Automation Process

To ensure the automation runs smoothly, you need to enable the event sending option in the Pabbly Connect Webhook add-on. Go to ‘Extensions’ > ‘Pabbly Connect Webhooks’ and select ‘Send on Event’. This setting will ensure that every time a new row is added in Google Sheets, the data is sent to Pabbly Connect automatically.

With the automation configured, you can test the entire workflow by adding a new lead in Google Sheets. Upon adding the lead, check your ConvertKit account to confirm that the subscriber has been added to the correct sequence.

Add a new row in the Google Sheets with lead details. Verify the subscriber status in ConvertKit. Ensure the subscriber is added to the correct sequence and form.

This final step confirms that your automation is working effectively, allowing you to manage your leads seamlessly.
